It can if it is run from the desktop, but I think it is started in the
privileged session for services. The problem with running it within a
desktop is that the session containing it must stay open. There is no
way to create sessions besides interacting with Terminal Services,
e.g. RDP.

If you need to interact with OS objects in a meaningful way you will
likely not be able to use Cygwin's bundled OpenSSH.
